Agata: Lost vs. Breaking Bad
Gestern musste ich auf die schnelle eine neue Umfrage raushauen. Wenig Zeit, falsche Stifte dabei und ein spannendes Thema mit simplem Logo-Artwork rausgeballert, aber immerhin. Better done than perfect, oder?

Breaking Bad ist schon echt gut, aber ich finde, LOST hatte auch seinen Moment in der Sonne. Was denkt ihr?

Base
Today I finally caved and purchased the full version of Base, a SQLite database editor for Mac.
It’s by no means cheap, but after just having used ChatGPT to update a table schema manually via the sqlite3 CLI, I was fed up when I realized I had to to it all again once more, on another table.
Bought the In-App Purchase and did it in the GUI app in 1 minute. Can’t say it felt great forking over almost €35, but I hope it’ll be of use in the future. After all, I convert almost all of my WordPress installs to SQLite, since MySQL is such a pain to deal with. This works because the sites I make usually aren’t very traffic-heavy and I can get away with it.
I used to use a third party plugin for this, but since WordPress Studio came out, I have been using their sort-of official MU plugin. Works great until it doesn’t (enable log files in WP to figure out), but Base sorted this out for me.

Revisiting ActivityPub on this blog
For some reason, about a month ago, federation of new posts stopped working. I tried looking into this today, but since ActivityPub is notoriously hard to debug, I can’t guarantee I fixed it.
I’m writing this post to check, in the hope it will show up in Mastodon clients. If you want, you can give the blog a follow under the known handle: @oelna
Also, I have read through an awful amount of GitHub issue feedback today and it seems I can’t provide a better follow button than the handle URL above. Shame!

Perfectly a Strangeness
Selten, dass ich mal so fasziniert bin von einer Filmbeschreibung:
In the dazzling incandescence of an unknown desert, three donkeys discover an abandoned astronomical observatory and the universe.
Ich will vermeiden, den Trailer vorher zu sehen. Wo kann ich den Film überhaupt sehen? Bin nicht mal sicher, ob ers ins Odeon schafft! (Letterboxd Link)

Taking the leap
Today I took the leap and activated a new theme for the blog. I will be working on this for the forseeable future, adding back features, fixing bugs and making things prettier.
The new theme is a block theme and will be a modern foundation for future experimentation. It is very broken in many places, as I have only a rough idea of the home page for now. I will fix the single post/page templates in the coming days.
Heavy features like the tweet archive will have to wait for a while. But I’m excited to start this new project. The last theme dates back to 2014, so this has been overdue.
Thank you for your patience, and good luck to us all.
